Fire's Highway Lyrics
a northern soul in southern lands
will always find his way to southern hands
she’ll kiss away your gypsy fears
and turn some restless nights to restless years
hearts from hell collide
on fire’s highway tonight
we dreamed it, now we know
a soul of fire and eyes of flame
tend to overwhelm her tender frame
when raw winds blew us down her city’s streets
she warmed my body with her spirit’s heat
some empty bottles, the cold sweat blues
howling like outlaws from her rented room
no rising sun confession, dear
only a restless night i’ll nurse for years
hearts from hell collide
on fire’s highway tonight
we dreamed it, now we know
one night to have and to hold
to let live, but never let go
a northern soul in southern lands
will always find his way to southern hands
she’ll kiss away your gypsy fears
and turn some restless nights to restless years
hearts from hell collide
on fire’s highway tonight
we dreamed it, now we know
will always find his way to southern hands
she’ll kiss away your gypsy fears
and turn some restless nights to restless years
on fire’s highway tonight
we dreamed it, now we know
tend to overwhelm her tender frame
when raw winds blew us down her city’s streets
she warmed my body with her spirit’s heat
howling like outlaws from her rented room
no rising sun confession, dear
only a restless night i’ll nurse for years
on fire’s highway tonight
we dreamed it, now we know
to let live, but never let go
will always find his way to southern hands
she’ll kiss away your gypsy fears
and turn some restless nights to restless years
on fire’s highway tonight
we dreamed it, now we know

"no rising sun confession, dear only a restless night i’ll nurse for years"
That is one of the most beautiful lines i have ever read.
I wonder if this could have anything to do with New Orleans and it's famed "House of the rising sun". It certainly is way south of Japandroids home and plenty of empty bottles and sweaty blues to be found there. And plenty of long nights too...
